The old bones I found on the way to Mordor

As for this photo from Argentina below, this was found on the second
day of hiking into the Andes. The landscape changes very quickly and
we emerged from one forest and were suddenly facing another. The
stark white roots reminded me of bones coming out of the ground and
holding up old trees. In the distance, you can see the final
destination of this hike - the mysterious peaks of Fitz Roy. These
are covered by clouds 90% of the time, so to have them on a crystal
clear day was lucky indeed. Tomorrow, in addition to posting the
short film, I'll show you a closer shot of Fitz Roy that was taken
around 6 AM the next morning, after an icy hike of 1500 feet in pitch
black. Will there be clouds at sunrise, or will it be visible?

When I first went to Los Glaciares National Park, back in 1993 I was caught by The Lord of the Rings and pictured the landscapes of Santa Cruz as amazingly proper for the shooting of the book. It was New Zealand, that is really similar to the eye to Patagonia. I was not that off the track.
